LMK00304
3-GHz 4-Output Differential Clock Buffer/Level Translator
Servers, Workstations, and Computing
■
1.0 General Description
The LMK00304 is a 3-GHz 4-output differential fanout buffer
3.0 Features
intended for high-frequency, low-jitter clock/data distribution
3:1 Input Multiplexer

and level translation. The input clock can be selected from
two universal inputs or one crystal input. The selected input
clock is distributed to two banks of 2 differential outputs and
one LVCMOS output. The differential output banks can be
mutually configured as LVPECL, LVDS, or HCSL drivers, or
disabled. The LVCMOS output has a synchronous enable in-
put for runt-pulse-free operation when enabled or disabled.
The LMK00304 operates from a 3.3 V core supply and 3 in-
dependent 3.3 V/2.5 V output supplies.
Two universal inputs operate up to 3.1 GHz and accept
LVPECL, LVDS, CML, SSTL, HSTL, HCSL (AC-
coupled), or single-ended clocks
—
One crystal input accepts a 10 to 40 MHz crystal or
single-ended clock

LVPECL Additive Jitter with LMK03806 clock source:
The LMK00304 provides high performance, versatility, and
power efficiency, making it ideal for replacing fixed-output
buffer devices while increasing timing margin in the system.
